A gentleman in this city met q bright
little girl, with her mother, one day
last week, and thinking he must say
something TO her, asked her name, age,
If she was going to school, what room
she was in, etc. All these questions
were answered satisfactorily, and then
he remarked: "Well, IL you are going
to that school, and are in that room,
you must know my little boy. Do you
know him?" "Oh, yes. b" was the prompt
reply, II know him; he got a licking
to-day" 1t is useless to say that the
little girls mother changed the subject
as quickly as possible, and the gentle
man made no further attempt TO talk
about his boy.
Eli Simmons, of this city, has been
reading about the fancy milk records
of cows in the east, where IL is said that
$4,000 pounds Of milk has been given by
one COW. lie owns a good, common,
everyday COW, that is worth $50, and
for several weeks he has been keeping
a record of her yield under ordinary
treatment, her feed being shorts, :" or
cracked corn and oats. He found that
for the week ending last Saturday, his
COW had gwen l62 pounds of milk, or
2Sf pounds per day, or at the rate of
SAL pounds for year. Figured at 5
cents per quart, this would be $4.O2a
cents per week, or S2O9.s7I per year.
Mr.. Simmons says that his cow could
be made to increase this record by ex-
ira treatment, but he does not believe
she or any other COW would give 10000
pounds Of milk in a year.
